No. 061 Plan to Disturb the City 3
On the third night, the moon was bright in the sky, and there was not a single cloud in sight, and in the bright moonlight, the soldiers could see clearly inside and outside the city, even if they did not have to light torches.
The 1,000 soldiers of the Ma Teng Army, after only one sneak attack, immediately died down, and all the campfires and torches were extinguished, and all the soldiers, including the generals, except for Ma Dai, all the others slept peacefully all night.
But even so. There are still many people in the entire city of Zaohan who have not slept for more than one night.
Great panic permeated the entire city, and great despair permeated the entire defenders of the city.
Bao Chu took the dozen elites to kill in the southeast corner, and the killing was too ruthless and desperate.
The soldiers, who had not been affected but had heard the news, had been trembling since the beginning of the night, holding the weapons in their hands and holding them in their hands, and no one dared to speak, no one dared to sleep, and they gathered together and stayed like this all night. The soldiers who did not see or receive the news were equally frightened by the terrible howls that were not killed, but continued all night.
By daytime, the damage of the previous night had been spread by someone.
Yesterday just after nightfall, the number of people sent by Ma Tengjun to attack the city was no more than 20 people, but in just two quarters of an hour, the other side killed and wounded more than 200 people at once, and not many died on the spot, but since last night, most of the soldiers who guarded the wounded have died, and only a few lucky ones have been rescued temporarily.
The specific and detailed situation is only known to Captain Caohan, in fact, most of the soldiers who have been rescued temporarily are not optimistic, and whether they can survive can only depend on themselves, and the doctors in the barracks have really done their best.
However, when the Taiwei reported the matter to Song Jian, he heard an order that made him creepy.
"Since they're already like this, you're going to kill them all today." Song Jian ordered.
Hearing this, Captain Tsuhan looked at his monarch in disbelief.
"Why, do you think this king is too cruel? Then you say, if any of them really recovers and goes out and spreads the truth about last night, will this city still be able to hold on? Song Jian glanced at him disappreciably and explained.
This is the difference between the superior and his own subordinates, who may never be on the same line of thinking. Therefore, Song Jian's first consideration was how to defend the city of Caohan, rather than caring about the half-dead soldiers.
"No!" Captain Cao Han thought about it, and there was nothing wrong with what the king said.
Last night, none of the wounded soldiers went out, and the news was still leaked, so it can be seen that there may be spies from the other side in the city, or those opponents in the city who have been unwilling to really surrender to Song Jian.
"King, what about the doctors in the army?" Lieutenant Cao Han trusted his guards very much, but some of the doctors who were responsible for treating the wounded soldiers would not leak the news, but if they were killed, if anyone else in the army was injured in the future, who would treat them at that time?
"Hmmm! Send them all into my palace, and I will personally send someone to watch over them. Song Jian also knew the importance of these doctors, and thought about it and commanded.
The next few days became the reincarnation of the previous three days of disturbing the city.
At night, they beat drums under the city, and during the day, they run back and forth outside the city. These small actions have already trained the defenders of Caohan City, and they will not take these seemingly childish tricks in their eyes at all now.
Except for the night!
Bao out and they still climbed up to the top of the city from time to time to sneak attack, but the sneak attack was placed on the first few days, and the specific time of the sneak attack often changed. However, it is less frequent than disturbing the city with drums.
After all, no matter how many soldiers there are in the city, it is impossible for Captain Caohan to put all the soldiers at the head of the city, but they are all guarding the city at night, so as long as they do not sneak attack at the fixed city head, it is very unlikely that they will be surrounded or discovered in advance.
It's just that the luck of the last sneak attack was a little worse, and he actually ran into the main force hidden here by Captain Caohan at the sneak attack point, and the sneak attack team finally suffered casualties. More than a dozen people went to the city together, and only five of them came back alive in the end, and besides, except for Bao Zhu, the other four people all really jumped directly from the city.
As a result, each of the four of them suffered significant injuries on their bodies.
As soon as he sensed that something was wrong, he immediately greeted and slipped down the city wall along the rope. By the time the defenders cut the ropes, he had already run away. Because the situation was so urgent, Bao Chu slid down so fast that the skin of his hands was worn out by the ropes. It was just a small injury to his whole body.
Afterwards, Jin Jue also fulfilled his original promise and let him personally treat the injuries of the four people. Jin Jue didn't study medicine, but he learned first aid, at least, fractures, lacerations, he will find a way to help them heal, and he won't let them die of bleeding.
That loud voice miraculously survived, he only broke his leg for the last time, Jin Jue connected his leg, and it was over.
The sneak attack was the first setback, and Jin Jue took the initiative to stop this kind of suicide-like sneak attack.
At this time, they had been here for twelve days since the siege.
During this period, a total of five sneak attack missions were carried out, only the first one had the greatest results, and the last three times, the defenders of Caohan City, as soon as they saw the sneak attackers, almost immediately threw down their weapons and ran away. Thus, the first four times killed a total of more than five hundred people.
The last time, in order to completely kill all these sneak attacks, Captain Saohan endured until the end before jumping out, so although he killed six sneak attackers, he also lost more than a hundred people.
On this day, that is, the thirteenth day of the siege, Ma Dai finally couldn't help it, he went straight to Jin Jue's camp tent, and asked loudly: "Jin Gongzi, you said that you can break the city, today is the thirteenth day, and there are only less than two days left before the deadline I gave you, if you still can't think of a way, I will take someone to leave now." ”
"Let's go! The kid is really a shallow learner, and he can't think of any good way to break the city, since General Pony wants to leave today, then leave today. However, General Pony, Jin boasted about Haikou, but he did not fulfill his promise to His Majesty, and he was really shameless to go to see General Ma again. You and I will take this opportunity to say goodbye! Jin Jue pretended to be distressed, pondered for a moment, and replied helplessly.
"Ugh!" Ma Dai only wanted to persecute Jin Jue here, not that he really had to leave, he also found that the combat effectiveness of the defenders of Caohan was too much, if he reported to his uncle and sent another 2,000 people here, when the time came, he would raise troops to attack and take the city without spending too much price.
However, he never expected that this kid would not play his cards according to common sense, and give up when he said to give up.
Jin Jue didn't give him any chance to think at all, turned around and said hello, Bao Chu and Li Feng immediately packed their things, prepared the carriage, and prepared to set off.
Jin Jue is leaving, Ma Dai doesn't have any reason to keep him, before they send troops, Ma Teng just explained, if Jin Jue can really help break the city, when the time comes, just reappoint him as the Taishou of Wudu County. He didn't explain how Ma Dai should deal with Jin Jue and his party if the city was not broken. Therefore, he could only watch as Jin Jue and the four of them left Caohan.
In desperation, Ma Dai had no choice but to gather all the people, pack up everything, and leave quickly.
However, after this battle, Ma Dai's thousand-strong troops only lost the six good men who attacked the camp, but he learned a lot of siege strategies from Jin Jue, and it was not a complete gain.
The plague god and the king of Hades were finally gone, and the entire city of Zaohan was greatly relieved.
Captain Cao Han reported the good news to Song Jian as soon as possible, and this time, no one stood up to talk about sending troops to pursue Ma Tengjun.
But only half a day later, someone entered the palace and reported urgently: "King Qiyu, someone is coming to attack the city again?" ”
